Rising from the ashes of the beloved (if erratic) print digest (that itself rose from the ashes of The Scream Factory magazine), we'd like to welcome you to the bare•bones e-zine. We look forward to offering the same irreverent reviews and commentary you've come to expect from us.

Merry Christmas from Bare Bones!

Merry Christmas from Jack, Peter, and Jose! We've taken this week off from perusing old horror and war comics but we'll be back with more next Monday. Jack will be back on Christmas Day with the latest installment of The Hitchcock Project.

And coming January 15th, the first in a series of in-depth looks at the best of pre-code horror, publisher by publisher. First up: Chamber of Chills by Harvey!

We've got lots of great surprises in store for you in 2015! Stay Tuned!
